Yours truly is about to teach a mixed media class and wanted to try making some stamps to enhance my (and my students') collaging experience. Stamps are used to create background patterns and give interest to surface design in 2d mixed media techniques. There is a variety of stamps available both online and in craft […]
Labour Daybour, New PICAXE Items
Dave Hrynkiw
September 4, 2009
Happy First Week of September everyone! The kids are all back in school and there's that certain holiday right around the corner. Apparently Labour Day celebrates "the economic and social achievements of workers." And what a better way to celebrate than to not work! That's right - on Monday, September the 7th Solarbotics and HVW Tech will be closed. Feel free to browse the site, place orders, send emails and leave messages to your heart's content. Just keep in mind that we won't be filling/shipping orders, responding to emails or getting back to those who leave messages until Tuesday the 8th. We hope you all have a fantastic long weekend!

What, you're still here? Ok fine, just because we love you so much we wouldn't dare leave you for a long weekend without giving you something new. We have four items to show off from PICAXE, three of which are kits:
- PICAXE-28X2 Module
- PICAXE Experimenters Kit (No Cable)
- PICAXE Development Board (No Cable)
- PICAXE Development Kit (Serial)
And that's it! Have a good weekend!

Seriously, this is it. Check out the products or click some links or go do something fun.

Actually we were doing some nitrogen-assisted laser tests on various regular, i.e. boring materials, such as plywood and mat board. Then I came across some feathers and here's what it turned out to be: Now that […]
Interesting Mini-sumo build
This mini-sumo design by Jeremy Bloyd-Peshkin features our wheels, and one of our favourite building materials, Sintra. We can't laser-cut sintra (PVC=bad stuff when burned), but milling it works well, as this builder shows. The asymmetric motor layout works, as proven by this contest-winning design (scroll to the bottom of the page).
